Emotion
Scale of Positive and Negative Experience (SPANE)
Two results: how much you felt good, and how much you felt bad, over the last four weeks.
Über diesen Test
The SPANE asks how often you have felt a range of positive and negative feelings over the last four weeks. It gives two separate results — one for positive feelings and one for negative feelings — instead of forcing them onto a single scale, because you can have a lot of both. Together they show your overall balance of feelings. This is a well-being measure, not a diagnosis.
Häufige Fragen
How is the SPANE scored?
Six words measure positive feelings and six measure negative feelings. Each is added up separately, so both scores range from 6 to 30. You can subtract the negative score from the positive score to get an overall balance from -24 to +24.
Why are there two scores instead of one?
Positive and negative feelings are not simple opposites — you can feel both a lot, or neither. Keeping them separate gives a fuller picture of your emotional life.
